  • a molding material was molded in the same manner as in the production of the flat plate for measuring the molding shrinkage rate, and a 2.5-mm molding plate was obtained.
  • the molding plate was sandwiched between the closed cell of an electromagnetic wave shielding effect measurement device by the KEC method, and an attenuation rate (dB) of the electromagnetic waves was measured while the electrically conductive pattern was grounded.
  • the measurement frequency was 1 MHz, 10 MHz, 100 MHz, and 1000 MHz, and the superiority and inferiority was evaluated in accordance with the following criteria with the attenuation rate (dB) at a frequency of 1 MHz as a reference.
  • the results are shown in Tables 5 to 8.
  • a carrier film was peeled off with a cutter knife immediately after the production of SMC, and a degree of impregnation of the unsaturated polyester resin composition and the glass fiber was visually evaluated.
  • the glass fiber was sufficiently wetted with the unsaturated polyester resin composition, and the glass fiber which was not impregnated into the unsaturated polyester resin composition was not observed.
  • a carrier film of the molding material (SMC) after maturing was peeled off with a cutter knife to evaluate the film peeling properties.
  • a molding material was molded in the same manner as in the production of the flat plate for measuring the molding shrinkage rate, and a 2.5-mm molding plate was obtained.
  • the surface resistivity of the molding plate at 23° C. and 90° C. was measured in conformity with JIS K6911 (2006). The results are shown in Tables 5 to 8.
  • test piece (length of 80 mm, width of 10 mm) was cut out from the flat plate-shaped molded article (thickness of 4 mm) used in the measurement of the molding shrinkage rate, and a bending elastic modulus and the bending strength at 23° C. and 90° C. were measured in conformity with JIS K7017 (1999). The results are shown in Tables 5 to 8.
  • test piece was cut out from the flat plate-shaped molded article (thickness of 4 mm) used in the measurement of the molding shrinkage rate, and the tensile strength and a tensile elastic modulus at 23° C. were measured in conformity with JIS K7164 (2005). The results are shown in Tables 5 to 8.
  • the unsaturated polyester resin composition, the molding material, and the molded article of the present invention can be preferably used in a battery pack casing for an electric vehicle and the like.
  • the battery pack casing for an electric vehicle of the present invention can be preferably used for a vehicle requiring low shrinkage, flame retardancy, electromagnetic shielding properties, and dimensional stability.
